Man I miss land yachts. Modern luxury brands / models are all built as "luxury performance;" no one builds a rolling sofa anymore and that is a disappointment.

"Rolling sofa" is a very accurate descriptor, I like it.

Lincoln still exists.

As a status symbol, luxery-spec pickups have filled the hole that the land-yahts left behind. They're not as cool though, imo. I'm usually pretty pragmatic I think, but I really want a land yacht project car someday for some reason.

Its really nice having a front and rear bench seat, but its not so nice not having cupholders.

Blame the Automotive press which ruined that entire genre of car. It's a damn shame.
